During the lifting process of the multiple pallets 50, the side wall surfaces of the multiple pallets 50 can be in line contact with the guide assembly 30. With this arrangement, the guide assembly 30 improves the positioning accuracy of the lifting of the multiple pallets 50, avoids the deflection caused by relative movement during the lifting process of the multiple pallets 50; and improves the smoothness of the lifting of the multiple pallets 50.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present invention, the supporting portion 230 may be a plate-shaped structure.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the structure of the guide assembly 30 is not limited, and is specifically as follows:
